The Space Development Agency(SDA) is a United States Space Force
direct-reporting unit
tasked with deploying disruptive space technology.
One of the technologies being worked on is space-based missile tracking using large global satellite constellations made up of
industry-procured low-cost satellites.
The SDA has been managed by the United States Space Force since October 2022.

— a region of space at the altitude of 22,000 miles (36,000 kilometers)
— is full of dangerous, previously unseen bits of space junk that could destroy satellites.

Satellites at this altitude circle Earth in sync with the planet's rotation, appearing permanently suspended above a fixed spot on the equator.
A single satellite in t…
